SNAPDRAGON POINTERS 



To be most successful it is better to be governed by tested rules. 

 We give a few pointers regarding Snapdragon, taken from our ex- 

 perimental records: 



Sow seed of our genuine Silver Pink Snapdragon before June 15; 

 follow directions on topping and benching, setting the plants 12x15. 

 The first crop of blooms will come in December, which should be 

 cut, leaving all other growth. The myriads of shoots left should 

 begin flowering in February and continue to flowet until June. 

 There should be from 30 to 50 shoots on each plant. If your trade 

 calls for heavy spikes, thin them out. If for medium spikes, let all 

 remain. 



So much for the greatest and most productive Snapdragon in 

 existence. Treatment for other varieties will be about the same, 

 except they can be planted closer. 



Snapdragon is our one business. No better seeds can be produced. 

 Each variety grown for seed is kept under glass in separate houses. 

 We offer pure seed as follows: Our original Silver Pink. II.OO per 

 pkt.; 3 for $2.50; 7 for $5.00. Seed of Nelrose, Phelps' White. Yellow. 

 Garnet Buxton and fancy mixed, at 85c per pkt.; 3 for $1.00. Free 

 cultural directions. All orders cash. 



We have a few thoueand seedling plants of Silver Pink at $5.00 per 100. 

 Tbla ad will suide you to prosperity. 8avo It.

CROP FAILURE IN THE LAW. 



The seed trade will be greatly inter- 

 ested in the fact that failure of crops 

 is no excuse for a canner to neglect to 

 make deliveries under his contracts, ac- 

 cording to a recent decree of the Mary- 

 land Circuit Court of Hartford county. 

 It made no difference in the court's 

 view of the packer's liability that the 

 packer had made every effort to pack 

 the goods by procuring the necessary 

 acreage to be grown for him, but by 

 reason of the excessively wet weather 

 prevailing before and during the can- 

 ning season, his crops were' ruined and 

 he was not able to pack the goods he 

 had contracted to sell. This defense 



The War does not interfere with my Shipments, 

 i deliver seeds from Mty until December.

New Early-flowering or WInter-bleoming 



1^ ■ An entirely new and distinct strain of Pansies. The 



I flnSlfiS ^^^^ advantage of these new Pansies over all hitherto 

 *""• existing Pansies is the extreme earliness of flowering 

 and their unusual hardiness. Sown at the same time as other Pansies, they begin 

 flowering the early part of March, or as soon as the snow is off the ground, 

 many times having four or five large flowers to a plant, when all other 

 Pansies are only showing buds. The flowers are large, well formed and 

 fragrant. They are highly recommended for autumn planting for early 

 bedding, and early cut flowers supplied in yellow, white, sky blue, 

 velvety purple, blue and mixture. Seed ready July 1.
